Reg'd Vet Tech and Bio BSc Student

Pet care experience

I am available for pet care services and am well practiced at administration of medications to dogs, cats and pocket pets/rodents- by mouth and through injection. I have experience with diabetic pets, thyroid conditions and other long term, medically-managed ailments. I am available for dog walking (on-leash only) and for home visits. I have experience with freshwater fish and am able to care for aquariums while you are away including partial water changes, plant fertilizer dosing and feeding. Please let me know of any behavioural or training concerns while walking or feeding your dog to keep your pet and myself safe at all times while aiming for your training goals. If you are away for a prolonged period of time and I am visiting/feeding your cat(s), I do not mind watering your house plants at the same time! I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Des is one of the nicest people I know and an incredible friend to both humans and animals. She is an extremely talented Registered Veterinary Technician who I always go to first when I need advice with my critters. I went to tech school with her and watched her always studying and working so hard to be the best she could be. I have worked with her in practice as well and know that she is always giving the animals top care and love even if they are being difficult. She understands how animals communicate and keeps that in mind when working with them. She is amazing with all animals but extra wonderful working with cats. They tend to love her. I would trust her with the care of my own pets and would recommend her to anyone, especially those who may be a little nervous about putting their pet in someone else's care. I can assure your pet will be treated like one of her own.

Des is amazing with animals. As she has completed the vet tech program at algonquin college I believe she is more then qualified to walk dogs and take good care of any animals someone may have. I would highly recommend.
